CSL Computers

Computational resources available for CSL projects 

Forty-five percent of the computational resources, shown below, are for CSL projects. The total system configuration includes interactive share nodes and I/O nodes which are not shown below.

December 1, 2007 – November 30, 2008

CSL GAUs available: 556K per month

System	Number of batch  processors	Number of batch nodes	Memory capacity	Disk  capacity
IBM POWER5+ (blueice)	1600 POWER5+ processors (1.9 GHz)	100 16-way nodes	2 gigabytes per processor	150 terabytes
IBM POWER5 (bluevista)	576 POWER5 processors (1.9 GHz)	72 8-way nodes	2 gigabytes per processor	55 terabytes

December 1, 2008 - May 31, 2009

CSL GAUs available per month: 1,326K per month

IBM POWER6 node and processor counts are approximate.

System	Number of batch  processors	Number of batch nodes	Memory capacity	Disk  capacity
IBM POWER6 (bluefire)	3200 POWER6 processors (4.7 GHz)	100 32-way nodes	2 gigabytes per processor	150 terabytes

Other resources:

-CISL will provide a data analysis and processing computer to CSL researchers. No GAUs are charged to CSL projects for the use of this computer.

-CISL’s Mass Storage System (MSS) is available to CSL researchers. Additional resources are allocated for the use of the MSS after a CSL allocation is made. CSL applicants should not request any GAUs for use of the MSS.
